Five stars who could replace Ferrari-bound Lewis Hamilton at Mercedes including McLaren ace and 17-year-old wonderkidToto Wolff has described one of the potential replacements as ‘immense’

LEWIS HAMILTON’s switch to Ferrari is set to be confirmed within hours – leaving Mercedes with a vacant seat for 2025. The seven-time world champion will end his 11-year spell with Mercedes at the end of the 2024 season. Mercedes now have to scout another driver to replace the F1 legend, with a few names already among the candidates. He impressed on his debut season last year and has the potential to be a world champion. Still only 17, he has won at all the junior categories and has been part of the Mercedes young driver programme since 2019. A good debut season in F2 could sway Mercedes into taking a risk on him for 2025.
